Devices such as Geiger counters, scintillation detectors, and ionization chambers are commonly used to detect radioactivity. These devices can detect the presence and measure the strength of radiation from radioactive materials.

Certain types of spiderwort are used to detect radioactivity. Specifically the Ohio spiderwort, Tradscantia ohiensis can show low levels of radioactivity when the stamen hairs, which are normally blue, grow pink as a result of genetic mutation.
The two devices used to detect nuclear radiation are Geiger-Muller counters and scintillation detectors. Geiger-Muller counters measure ionizing radiation levels, while scintillation detectors use crystals to detect radiation and convert it into light pulses for measurement.
Yes, a Geiger counter can detect radioactivity. It measures ionizing radiation such as alpha, beta, and gamma rays by detecting the electric charge produced from ionization of the gas inside the device when radiation passes through it.
An instrument that can detect the presence of an electric charge is an electrometer. Electrometers are devices used to measure voltage, resistance, and current in electrical circuits, and they can detect small electric fields or charges. They are commonly used in physics, engineering, and research laboratories.
Not a battery alone - no.

Geiger-Muller counter, scintillation detector, ionization chamber, and Cherenkov detector are common instruments used to detect and measure radioactivity. Each has its own mechanism for detecting the presence of ionizing radiation and measuring its intensity.

Smoke detectors are devices that detect smoke. They are used as warning devices in houses to warn people of fire.
Laser-ranging devices us laser beams to detect the fault movements that cause earthquakes.

No, these devices do not cause cancer or they would not be used in hospitals. They can detect cancer and are also used on pregnancy so they do not cause cancer!
